Study Summary

This trial is testing a new cancer drug in combination with a ketogenic diet in patients with either relapsed or refractory follicular lymphoma or endometrial cancer.

Who is the study for?
Adults with relapsed or refractory follicular lymphoma or endometrial cancer, who have tried at least two prior therapies for FL and have no standard treatment options for EC. Participants must be over 18, able to consent, have a heart function above 50%, an ECOG score of 0-2 indicating they are relatively active, stable organ function, and not pregnant. They should also agree to use effective contraception.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing the combination of a PI3K inhibitor drug called Copanlisib with a ketogenic diet in patients with specific types of cancer that either came back after treatment or didn't respond to previous treatments. The study will include people whose cancers have certain genetic changes.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include high blood sugar levels (especially important for those with diabetes), infections due to weakened immune systems, allergic reactions to Copanlisib's ingredients, and possibly increased risk of heart-related issues.

Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Follicular Lymphoma (FL)Experimental Treatment2 Interventions
The lymphoma study group will enroll 23 patients with FL. In cycle 1, patients will first start ketogenic diet for 7 days (Day -6 to Day 0). Only patients who demonstrate compliance and tolerance with the ketogenic diet for all 7 days, as confirmed by pertinent blood and urine tests, will be allowed to continue the study and treatment using copanlisib and the ketogenic diet starting on Day 1. In cycle 2 and beyond, patients will start the ketogenic diet and copanlisib on day 1.
Group II: Endometrial Cancer (EC)Experimental Treatment2 Interventions
The solid tumor group will enroll 19 patients with EC. In cycle 1, patients will first start ketogenic diet for 7 days (Day -6 to Day 0). Only patients who demonstrate compliance and tolerance with the ketogenic diet for all 7 days, as confirmed by pertinent blood and urine tests, will be allowed to continue the study and treatment using copanlisib and the ketogenic diet starting on Day 1. In cycle 2 and beyond, patients will start the ketogenic diet and copanlisib on day 1.

Is this a trial that is testing an innovative treatment?

"Since 2012, Bayer has been studying Copanlisib in clinical trials. The first ever trial was completed that same year and involved 227 patients. After the initial study, Phase 2 drug approval was received in 2012. As of now, there are 34 live trials being conducted in 983 cities across 46 different countries."

Answered by AI

What are some other instances where Copanlisib has been used in medical research?

"Currently, there are 34 ongoing clinical trials investigating Copanlisib. Of these, 3 have reached Phase 3. The majority of research locations for Copanlisib are situated in Houston, Texas; however, 2139 medical centres worldwide are running studies concerning this treatment."
